Flying from Schiphol? Don't forget to visit the XD Theater Schiphol up in Lounge 2. The only 6D Cinema Motion Ride on an Airport worldwide. Show any receipt from SPL and get 25% OFF. It's FUN4ALL!
Be prepared for a long walk if you're connecting from an international flight to one within the schengen region, but take advantage of the shops along the route.
Visit the Panorama terrace for a great view on aircrafts and platforms. You see your family, friends or guests arriving (or flying away) and you will have enough time to walk to arrivals.
Never take risk to get to your gate on time, always go to your gate 10-20 minutes earlier just in case because gates could change. Happened to me many times and one time almost missed my flight.
The security check in departure terminal 1 has been upgrades. Now semi-automated and looking more spacious. Join privium border passage club and fly through even faster.
Insane security procedures. Get ready to pull-out of your bags/pockets every laptop, tablet, phone, player, headphone, camera, and their power supplies and cords. :-( #epicfail
To connect on the KLM-Lounge wifi, you just have to put the password KLM with the date of the day so if today is the 25 April 2012 the password will be KLM25042012
Lots of shopping can be done, before and after check in. Quite efficient even after the security upgrades. Suitcase on the conveyor belt with 10 minutes after being there.
